Requirements can vary by region and device. For example, Samsung Brazil’s guidance lists Galaxy Book models released from 2021, One UI 5.1 or later on Galaxy phones and tablets, Bluetooth enabled, the same Samsung account, and the same Wi-Fi network; it recommends Wi-Fi 5 GHz. Those are regional support details, not a universal compatibility list. Samsung Brazil’s Multi Control guidance.
